We finally just decided to take the trailer and head out. We went up to St. Charles Canyon as you girls will know all about. We love going up there and were extremely surprised that we were alone in the camp ground for two whole days and then the crowds started to come. Lots of reservations were posted at most of the camping areas. This of course considering Labor Day was fast approaching.
We were right by the river where there are two little water falls. It was so beautiful with yellow flowers and moss and then to be able to listen to the water was just heavenly. It was quite cold up there, the first night it got down to 44 degrees. A bit colder than here at home but we snuggled down under the covers and enjoyed it. The weather warmed up during the day so we didn't even have to wear jackets or long pants. No phones, no TV, just peace and quiet. We did a lot of reading, talking, taking walks and just plain relaxing. G widdled a piece of wood down to the shape of a smoke stack for a little wooden train he got in Europe. Very fun!
We came back all relaxed and ready to do whatever. But wish we were still up there. Such good memories of going up there when our family was younger.

Sounds like you guys really enjoyed yourselves. Yes, I remember being up there & even going up & camping on the lake shore. That was a blast!

I'm so glad you guys got away for a few days. We sure had fun yesterday at your house. Hope all goes well with Dad's appointment.
